Preferred term

learned helplessness  

Definition

  • Learned helplessness is a behavior pattern involving a maladaptive response characterized by avoidance of challenges, negative affect, and the collapse of problem-solving strategies when obstacles arise. Three components are necessary for learned helplessness to be present: contingency, cognition, and behavior. [Source: Encyclopedia of Human Development; Learned Helplessness]
